CONFIGURATION FILE

Pdfinfo reads a configuration file at startup. It first tries to find
the user's private config file, ~/.xpdfrc. If that doesn't exist, it
looks for a system-wide config file, typically /etc/xpdfrc
(but this location can be changed when pdfinfo is built). See the
xpdfrc(5)
man page for details.

OPTIONS

Many of the following options can be set with configuration file
commands. These are listed in square brackets with the description of
the corresponding command line option.

Sets the encoding to use for text output. The
encoding-name
must be defined with the unicodeMap command (see
xpdfrc(5)).
This defaults to "Latin1" (which is a built-in encoding).
[config file: textEncoding]

-opw password

Specify the owner password for the PDF file. Providing this will
bypass all security restrictions.

-upw password

Specify the user password for the PDF file.

-cfg config-file

Read
config-file
in place of ~/.xpdfrc or the system-wide config file.
